Corcovado Hiking Tour
Rio de Janeiro
What you will do
After the pick up, our Corcovado hiking tour takes you to the Parque Laje (Laje Park), located in the south area of Rio de Janeiro city, not far from the Botanical Garden. The 2 hours hike on a steep trail, up to the top at 710 meters ( 2330 feet), is perfect for regular hikers or the more adventurous ones. Is considered to be a moderate/difficult hike, so being in good physical conditions is a must. Along the way, within the lush Tijuca Forest, animals like toucans, capuchin monkeys and many other species may be spotted.Unlike the other hikes in Rio, this one does not take you to the summit, but close to it. The trail ends at the gate, where tickets to access the statue by van must be purchased. The ride inside the van takes only 5 minutes. After visiting the statue, we get back in the van to reach the trail by the gate. The return to Parque Laje is made through the same trail.

Rio AdventuresWe are an adventure tour operator based in Rio de Janeiro, that has been around since 2001, managed by a team of "locals" who know exactly what travelers and outdoor enthusiasts are looking for, when coming to Rio. We are focused in outdoor activities, adventure sports and ecotourism, but we also provide the regular and most common tours, to places such as Sugar Loaf, Corcovado and other tour spots.
It is just a matter of choice. You may choose to go up to Sugar Loaf by cable car, no problem in that, we will surely take you up there. But we will be very pleased if you decide to get up there by walking, or even rock climbing. Our philosophy - which really defines us for what we are as a company and who we are as employees - is to offer you a different approach, a particular way to see our city, through our eyes. Once we have accomplished that, we will consider our mission done.
